Hi Paul,

re:
> By the way: MOI's visible objects are sorted in an alphabetical order, aren't they? Is there a way to
> show them in a order of the ObjectList (from GeometryDatabase.getObjects())?

The list of objects in the Scene Browser are sorted in alphabetical order but that's something that the Scene Browser does on its own, the actual raw list from the geometry database is not in any sorted order other than newly created objects will be at the end.

Hi Michael,

I tested your solution with the DXF-export and after inserting the line
"objects = moi.geometryDatabase.getObjects();"
in your script after writing back from the helperarray it work's perfectly for me. It seems, that otherwise the unsorted array is written. Thank you very much for your help. No problem with the late response, it was anyway better for my learning curve to try things first and see your solution afterwards.

I have a wish and two questions.

- If you implement the DXF-layer to MoI-Styles feature, could you do this not only for the V4 but, if there will be a maintainace release in the future, also for the V3? The reason is, I use Linuxcnc form my mill, witch is the common Linux distro with realtime patches. Until now it is still 32bit, and the MiO V4 on Wine won't work there.

- If I have wishes/suggestions for the V4 (for example an autoupdate and autoscroll for the logging window for easier debugging?), where should I place them, in the forum and/or on the Wiki-pages?

- The same, I found some little thing, testing the V4, for example, when you click SaveAs, firstly the Open-Dialog appears, and after canceling that, the SaveAs Dialog (I assume you know that already), or the OSnap Info is not shown like in V3, when you approach an OSnap-point or a crash of the V4 after several hibernation-cycles. Are you interested in those reports, and if so, where should I place them?

Best Regards,
Paul

Hi Paul, that's great I'm glad that's working for you!

I'm sorry but I'm not doing any more work on V3 except for absolutely critical fixes.

Here in the forum would be great. For improved logging it's probably more likely that I'd try to add support for some of the system logging tools like OutputDebugString on Windows, that way you'd be able to use some other existing tool to see a live logging stream rather than me spending time on that.

That looks like a bug in the customized SaveAs.js replacement - at the top where it uses getOpenFileName(); change it to getSaveFileName();


> or the OSnap Info is not shown like in V3, when you approach an OSnap-point

Yes I know about this one - the display of text inside of viewports is one of the few remaining areas that have not been implemented quite yet in V4.


> or a crash of the V4 after several hibernation-cycles. Are you interested in those reports, and if so, where should I place them?

If some crash report files were generated, like moi_report1.zip, moi_report2.zip , etc... can you please e-mail those to me at moi@moi3d.com so I can take a look?

Thanks, - Michael
